But yet, most of us continue down the path of overspending to keep up with the Jones’, expecting at some point for it to result in blissful happiness. Why? I am not sure, I will leave it to the social psychologists to hypothesize and research (and hopefully help us better understand this drive for stuff that is so hard to kick…. pleeeeease help us Geoffry Miller!). For myself, my focus lies in how I can change this behavior and what the result will be.

So here’s what’s up with livewellspendless101 blog:

#1. Follow our family as we journey towards a minimalist lifestyle, freeing ourselves from debt, and living a wholesome, beautiful life.

#2. I am not here to tell you how to live. I am by no means an expert in the category of “life”… who is? I just thought maybe somewhere along our personal journey there would be some insight, discovery, and struggle that might be helpful to someone, somewhere.

#3. We have one life (no matter what you believe, this is all we know with absolute certainty). Why not live it filled with happiness and joy? That is our goal, in everything we do. That is the goal of this blog.

#4. Find your rhythm and dance, baby! Maybe you follow ten of our suggestions, maybe you follow one. Doesn’t matter. Find something that works for you and makes you happy and you will make it out there my friends.
